Join Hacktoberfest 2024: Create a Swift Starter Kit for Couchbase!

Are you ready to make a splash in the world of open-source during Hacktoberfest 2024? Here's an exciting opportunity to contribute to Couchbase's ecosystem by creating a Swift Starter Kit!

Couchbase offers starter kits for various frameworks, but we're missing one for Swift. This is where YOU can shine! Help us build a Swift Couchbase starter kit to empower iOS and macOS developers in seamlessly integrating Couchbase into their Swift applications.

Your Mission:

TL;DR: Create a Swift app showcasing Couchbase's core features, ensuring cross-platform compatibility, with a detailed README and tests. The final outcome is a new GitHub repo in your account for the starter kit, plus a PR in this repo adding your project to the community contributions section.

• Develop a basic Swift application that connects to a Couchbase cluster.
• Showcase key functionalities using the Couchbase Swift SDK.
• Provide a sample configuration file with necessary parameters for Couchbase connection.
• Create a detailed README.md with clear setup and usage instructions.
• Set up deployment configurations for common iOS/macOS development environments.
• Implement a test suite to verify the Couchbase connection.

Core Requirements:

Your Swift starter kit should include:

• Couchbase Integration: Support for both Couchbase Server and Couchbase Capella.
• Configuration: Include a template for storing connection parameters securely.
• Development Environment: Provide setup instructions for Xcode and other relevant tools.
• Testing: Add unit tests to validate the Couchbase connection and basic operations.
